Well folks, the long wait is finally over. Just yesterday, EA released their much anticipated fighting game, Fight Night Champion, onto the App Store for $4.99. Fight Night Champion features:

NOW BE THE CHAMP ON iPHONE & iPOD TOUCH. Go toe-to-toe with a premium roster of title-holders past and present, and create your own championship legacy in the ring. Experience the true brutality of boxing in the tradition of the highest rated simulation fighting franchise of all time. Featuring innovative gameplay and best-in-class graphic quality, you’re looking at the best boxing game on the App Store. It’s undisputed.

A LEGENDARY LIST OF BOXING GREATS INCLUDES WBA HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP DAVID HAYE
Enter the ring with 20 champions like David Haye, as well as heavyweight legends like Mike Tyson and Muhammad Ali. Also match skills with the likes of Manny Pacquiao, Roy Jones Jr., Bernard Hopkins and “The Golden Boy” Oscar De La Hoya. You can even take on Andre Bishop and Isaac Frost, the main characters from the new Fight Night Champion console storyline.

BUILD A LEGEND IN LEGACY MODE
Start in local tournaments and develop your skills through training and bouts. Become a pro and work your way through the ranks. Take your shot at the title and become the Champ! Then, defend your belt against new rivals. But fight smart in your prime! Your boxer ages after every fight and will eventually need to retire.

FRIENDS BECOME FOES
Make it personal. Measure your skills against your friends in a Multiplayer fight via local Wifi or Bluetooth. Feel the agony of a right hook to your boxer’s jaw or the adrenaline rush as you lay your friend’s boxer out. (Please note: This feature is ONLY compatible with 3rd and 4th generation iPhone and iPod touch devices).

FEEL LIKE YOU’RE IN THE RING
With fluid touch controls, every tap, flick and gesture keeps your boxer ducking, weaving, jabbing, and moving around the ring

As of now, there’s no iPad specific version available, however, I am guessing that EA will release one here shortly. Fight Night Champion costs $4.99 and weighs in at 384 MB.
